Barrow An IRA Rollover

This is a dangerous maneuver, but if you're sure you only need cash for a few weeks, you can "borrow" from your IRA through a rollover. Once you take the money out of on IRA, you must get it back into another IRA within 60 days. If you don't, the IRS will treat it as an early distribution, subject to tax and (if you're younger than 59 1/2) a 10% penalty too. Don't expect the IRS to show any mercy if you mess this one up.
